Thanked: 4I soak my mug and brush in HOT water for about 2-3 minutes. I think it helps to activate some ingredients. I also add a lot of glycerin to my lather. it make is soo creamy. it looks like icing on peoples face.

I splash on warm water, lather then shave. Three minutes total. I could take longer, I guess, but I got women out there I want to chase.

Achieving a better shave.
I tried it yesterday and I liked it, and it seem not to make a difference on the shave ( massaging vs brushing).

It also ties up the two minutes I use for stropping and setting up, but yesterday was a long shave, and I like long shaves. The shave was as good! The only advantage I would see to massaging the beard (as per an old barbers manual) would be blood circulation to your face for a better skin (just a supposition, not supported by facts). Double O
